DragDrop a textarea

21

No font size? Interesting.

Debugging this will be a tedious process.

Because I soooo hate fiddle I created a working drag/drop of a textarea on codepen.

(BTW, this exact code wouldn’t work on fiddle but works fine on codepen.)

Go play around with it (you may have to shorten the dark working area to be able to actually play with the drag and drop.

After you’ve played around a bit, change the attributes of my textarea to the attributes of your AppStudio project textarea, run it again and make sure it works.

Thanks, @cindycc. Now I understand!

I’ve posted this question to the jqWidgets board:

https://www.jqwidgets.com/community/topic/drag-drop-with-a-textarea/

(It’s also possible @PPetree’s approach could be made to work, without using jqwDragNDrop)

Drag and Drop is part of the html5 spec so I’d bet a dollar to a donut that jqWidgets is simply putting a wrapper around the core function.
